Enjoy Midsummer Like a Finn - Perfect Pulkkilanharju


2021 Juhannus in Finland 
Enjoy Midsummer Like a Finn - Perfect Pulkkilanharju

On the two days before that it was Juhannus in Finland.
The annual bonfire on Seurasaari Island was cancelled due to the epidemic.
It had been an event I had never missed before.
Now,
"we were supposed to meet again in 2022".
NEVER MIND.
 I found another perfect place for Juhannus - Pulkkilanharju.
Coffee, ice cream, lake and forest. 
Everything you need.
Oh, I almost forgot - in Finland today, people are hit by heat waves as usual.
People's way to beat the heat - 
either flocking to the forest
or running to the lake​​​​​​​.
Treehouse
I'm afraid that won't work
Even if the heat is bearable,
mosquitoes are true killers, right?
Having said that,
Finns know how to enjoy the summer nature.
Look at him on his bare shoulders, on his bicycle.
And her tying a dog leash around her waist.
I think, she just wanted to be walked by dogs.
That's right.
Water speedboats cool you down naturally and effectively
Nothing to be afraid of.​​​​​​​

Strawberry season is just around the corner
To be followed by blueberries, cloudberries and cranberries
I want to quench your thirst with berries

The summer of 2021 has just begun.
In the past days,
so much has happened in the world.
I hope,
that your unhappiness and mine will pass.
The anxiety, the fear, the pain, the conflict.
All dried up by this summer sun.
Happy Midsummer's Day.
Hyvää Juhannusta.​​​​​​​
